If you get into the forest with your friends, stay with them always. If you don’t, you may get lost. If you really get lost, this is what you should do. Sit down and stay where you are. Don’t try to find your friends—let them find you by staying in one place.
There is another way to help your friends or other nearby people to find you. Give them a signal (信号) by shouting or whistling (吹口哨) three times. Any signal given three times is a call for help.
Keep up shouting or whistling always three times together. When people hear you, they will know that you are not just making noise for fun. They will let you know that they have heard your signal. They give you two shouts, two whistles, or two gun-shots (枪声). When someone gives you a signal, it is an answer to a call for help.
If you don’t think that you will get help before night comes, try to make a little house---cover up to the holes with branches (树枝) with lots of leaves. Make yourself a soft bed with leaves and grass.
What should you do if you get hungry or need drinking water? You would have to leave your little house to look for a river. Don’t just walk away. Pick off small branches and drop them as you walk so that you can find your way back. The most important thing to do when you are lost is—stay in one place.

Transport has a lot to answer for when it comes to harming the planet．While cars and trains are moving towards greener，electric power，emissions from air travel are expected to increase massively by 2050．If we want big green sky solutions，we need blue sky thinking．Fortunately，there's plenty of that happening right now，particularly the short﹣haul flights powered by batteries．
Harbour Air is the largest seaplane airline in North America，flying 30，000 commercial flights in 40 seaplanes each year．Significantly，all Harbour Air routes last less than 30 minutes，making it perfectly fit for electric engines．"As an airline，we're currently in the process of turning all our planes into electric airplanes．" says CEO Greg McDougall．To make this happen，the airline has partnered up with MagniX to create the world's first commercial flight with an electric engine．
Making the skies electric isn't just good for the environment，it also makes sound financial sense：a small aircraft uses ﹩400 on conventional fuel for a 100﹣mile flight，while an electric one costs ﹩8﹣ 12 for the same distance，and that's before you factor in the higher maintenance costs of a traditional engine．There's also the added bonus that electric planes are just much more pleasant to fly in．No loud engine noise，no smell of fuel，just environmentally friendly peace and quiet．
While there has been real progress in the e﹣plane industry，the technical challenges that remain are keeping everyone's feet firmly on the ground．A battery，even a lithium one，only provides 250 watt﹣hours per kilogram；compare this to liquid fuel，which has a specific energy of 11，890 watt﹣hours per kilogram．Carrying adequate batteries， however，would make the plane too heavy to get off the ground．In aircraft，where every bit of weight counts，this can't just be ignored．
The transition（过渡） from gas to electric in the automobile industry has been made easier by hybrids﹣ vehicles powered by both fuel and electricity．Many believe the same pattern could be followed in the air．Fuel consumption could be reduced as the electric component is switched on at key parts of the journey，especially on take﹣off and landing．
It's certainly an exciting time for electric flying．With companies like Harbour Air taking the lead，battery﹣powered planes，especially on short﹣haul journeys，are set to become a reality in the next few years．

One of the most stressful days of Susan McFrederick's life was watching her son get wheeled away for surgery hours after he was born in 2011．
But after the operation，Susan burst into tears for a different reason：across the cut on their newborn son's back was a sweet winter scene，hand﹣drawn on his bandages（绷带）．
"There were rolling hills of snow，a pine tree and a snowman with a hat and broom，" she recalled．"It was extremely touching and comforting to know that somebody had taken the time to do that for my family．It was a moment I'll never forget．"
Susan soon learned the artist was her son's surgeon，Robert Parry，who discovered another way to use his hands in the mid﹣1980s during his internship（实习期）at a children's medical center，where he saw one of his colleagues cut out heart and shark shapes to decorate children's bandages．
"My first reaction was，'What is he doing？Hey，that's kind of neat，'" Parry recalled．"I especially liked the reactions of the parents and the patients when they saw his artwork．The smiles took everyone's attention from the surgery．Then I decided to follow suit．"
Parry quickly graduated from his early hearts and sharks，and started to surprise families with drawings that captured young patients' personalities．From Snoopy to Spider﹣Man and bears to butterflies，there isn't much he hasn't drawn．Most kids want superheroes sports team logos or princesses，while babies often receive scenes with flowers，trees and sea creatures．During the last 30 years，Parry estimates he has left examples of his handiwork over the stitches（伤口缝线）of more than 10，000 children．
"During a time of stress for families，it's nice to be able to help them smile and laugh，" Parry said．"This is something positive that I can do for them，which is what I like most about it．"
For Parry，the reward is knowing he hopefully made a difference in a child's life，and except for his drawings on bandages，"they can go on and live their lives and never know I was in it，" he said．
He's not ready to retire，but he's found a new hobby to keep his hands skillful in the years to come．
"I've taken up knitting（编织），" Parry said．"Hats，sweaters，gloves﹣I enjoy it all．But mostly，I enjoy giving everything away．"
